The Pittsburgh Penguins are down another defenseman.
Chad Ruhwedel suffered a concussion Friday during Game 4 against the Ottawa Senators and will be evaluated once the team returns home, head coach Mike Sullivan announced after the 3-2 win.
Ruhwedel was forced to leave the game after a hit by Bobby Ryan late in the first period and was unable to return.
